If you second hand is ticking in stutter steps, in other words it hesitates 2-3 seconds then quickly steps forward, and your watch is still keeping correct time that is an EOL (end of life) feature...your cell has become very low and it's the watchs way of telling you to replace the battery. Good luck :)

My dango watch second hand stops some time

If your Dango watch's second hand stops intermittently, there are a few things that could be causing the issue. Here are some possible reasons and solutions:

1. Low Battery: If the battery in your watch is running low, it could cause the second hand to stop. You may need to replace the battery in your watch. Check your watch's manual or take it to a watch repair shop to have the battery replaced.
2. Dirt or Debris: Dirt or debris can get inside your watch and cause the gears to stop moving properly. If this is the case, you may need to have your watch cleaned and serviced by a professional watch repair person.
3. Loose Second Hand: If the second hand on your watch is loose, it could cause it to stop intermittently. A loose second hand can be caused by a damaged pinion or cannon pinion. You may need to take your watch to a professional watch repair person to have it fixed.
4. Magnetic Interference: Magnetic fields can interfere with the movement of the gears inside a watch, causing it to stop or run erratically. If you have been around strong magnets or electronic devices, it could be causing the issue. Try moving your watch away from these devices to see if that helps.
5. Mechanical Issue: There may be a mechanical issue with your watch's movement that is causing the second hand to stop. This can be caused by a worn out gear or other component. You may need to take your watch to a professional watch repair person to have it fixed.

I have a invicta bolt zeus and it stopped working. When I reset all the hands everything moves except the subdial that reads the seconds. Even when the big second hand moves the subdial doesnt. Also even...

If you suspect the battery try some spare batteries double checking with several known good to brand new one tests to cover your bases for consistency. It is a method of trial and error eliminating any possibility of a battery problem.

Sometimes there are power drain issues where cheep batteries even new can't handle. Trial and error illumination of a power drain issue checking with high power drain capable batteries. Information can sometimes be found in the manual in the specification.

From there you have the insight information it is not the battery in your further investigations describing the problem to a dealer or manufacture.

Other options of investigation include if you have the owners manual to check if there is any special settings to instigate you may need to know about dealers and the manufacture should know as well.

Brand New Watch second hand won't move. won't keep time.

The watch has a problem in the timing module and the second hand won't move (a cog wheel issue) this is clearly a manufacture defect that can not be remedied and should be returned since it is under warranty.

My Cartier Santos displays the correct time, but the second hand moves only every 5 seconds. Is this a battery issue?

mcdevito75, here, Most likely it"s simply the design of the watch itself. Best Bet, Check with a small watch repair shop in your area. -------- Generally a battery issue would affect the time keeping of the watch.

Second hand is moving but doesnt keep the time

If the second hand is moving and the watch isnt keeping time then the movement needs to be replaced because it probably needs repair. The reason i suggest replacing the movement is becuase of the low cost compared to repair. You can try to submit to Diesel under warranty but need to check the terms.

Watch stopped while in hospital and now, although running again, has the second hand moving in two second intervals

Some Seiko kinetic watches and other self charging watches do this when the battery is low. If it relies on you moving to keep it charged that may explain why it stopped in hospital. Try giving it a good shake and see if it starts moving smoothly again

Second hand sweeping five second increments

Yes, it is sign for time to replace the battery. Your watch is fitted with EOL (end of life) device. This device forces the integrated circuit board to move seconds hand in 2 - 5 seconds increments when the battery power level is less than necessary for smooth running of the watch movement. At the same time the timekeeping of the watch is not affected and it will still keep good time for about 2 weeks.

Second hand doesn't move for each second

Your TAG is fitted with EOL (end of life) feature. This is the cause of that 4 seconds interval movement of seconds hand and thus indicating the time for battery replacement. The timekeeping is not affected by this- it is just warning to replace battery a.s.a.p.
Find your nearest watchmaker and ask for battery replacement.
